Alex Accetta Returns to Alabama Staff | College Basketball News

Alex Accetta is back at Alabama basketball as director of program relations — a move that comes hot on the heels of her July wedding to head coach Nate Oats. With seven years under her belt at the Tide and prior experience with the Dallas Mavericks, Accetta brings deep program knowledge and elite-level insight. Meanwhile, Josh Pierre steps into the newly vacated director of player development role, taking over from Christian Pino (now at Providence), while bringing his own resume from Elon, Mississippi State, and Arkansas State. The team kicks off its 2026-27 season with an exhibition against Furman on October 8 — watch how this revamped staff shapes the year ahead.
